Pretty sure he’s just some edgy teenager.

He probably spent most of last month hanging flags upside down on lamp posts, and calling himself patriotic, it’s the sort of thing people like him do. Everyone else calls him a prat

Great insights there from “Charlie Simp”

Obviously in training to suck up to Farage and his ilk. Fortunately I’ve never heard of him before so he’s obviously not very good at it.

A supermarket near me has reorganised and they’ve had to put up signs telling people where everything now is. So what was the point in reorganising it?

I think there should be legal definitions of where things are and what aisles they’re on. I don’t understand why sometimes eggs are considered dairy and other times they’re in a completely different part of the store. I actually don’t care which one they pick but I would like all supermarkets to be consistent. One place near me that has a dairy aisle, for all dairy except yogurts, which are on a neighbouring aisle. Every time I want some cheese I always go down the yoghurt aisle and get lost.

For me it’s having forks with slightly bent prongs, I absolutely hate that but I also don’t really want to start throwing cutlery away because it’s metal and I don’t really know what to do with it. Is it recyclable?

I bought a new water filter today I’m very pleased with it as it’s slightly different to the previous filter.

But yes I’ve definitely become a lot more interested in Tupperware then I would have previously thought possible. I think that’s just because when I was a kid things just happened, and now I actually have to make them happen I realise how convenient it is to have storage containers rather than just putting bowls and plates in the fridge and messing around with crappy plastic film.

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen something very similar to that done with molecules. I kind of thought that’s what this was at first, an oxycodone molecule plushie. Which would at least have some education value.

I think it’s like magnets, they repel each other.

Why would anyone think he was related to Harvey Weinstein? That’s not how first names work. My father has a friend called George but no one thinks he’s related to the former president.

It’s a nice place to walk through on your way to the shops that you would actually want to go in. It’s a very nice arcade but it’s all boutique handbags with no price tag, I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone in any of the shops in there.

Yes if there was a game that depicted that you can guarantee there would be moral panic from the self-declared religious pearl clutches.

I do like the fact that it’s authorised in Hawaii but prohibited in Alaska.

This is why it’s absolutely ridiculous that Google automatically has AI answer search queries. One time I searched the serial number of a washing machine and the AI came back and said something along the lines of, this looks like a serial number for some sort of product. Yeah thanks for that.

I don’t necessarily have a problem with AI although I think it’s going to kill the economy, my biggest issue is AI being stuffed into everything in situations where it doesn’t make sense.

How do they know this? How can you tell what an ostrich is thinking, because every interaction I’ve ever had with an ostrich, which is admittedly is limited, has always led me to believe that thinking is not something they do an awful lot of. Mindlessly attacking everyone insight is more their modus operandi

What did he farm the ostriches for, eggs?

I grew up on a farm and there was a family in our area and they used to have peacocksz but I’m pretty sure they were just there the visual interest because I don’t think they were actually part of the farm stock. I always assumed that people kept ostriches for pretty much the same reason, because honestly they are pain to deal with. I certainly don’t think I’ve ever really seen ostrich eggs being particularly high in demand.

I have no idea why they felt the need to do this since reality itself is pretty damning to him. It’s not like they needed to make him look bad.

I seem to remember that the passwords were encrypted so, all they got was the passwords people use for their password manager which because people were using the password manager and therefore had random passwords it didn’t really matter hugely.

Especially in the US, the average person doesn’t like the idea of someone getting something that they’re personally not receiving. So framing it as a compensation that everyone receives regardless of employment status I think is the only feasible way forward.

Universal basic income is supposed to be irrespective of employment status already. That’s what the “Universal” bit means.

Any work that you do you get compensated on top of UBI, that way it allows for things like working half the week and using UBI to top up your finances, companies could employ you two and a half days a week and another person the other two and a half days a week with each person getting a week’s worth of pay thanks to UBI, the company doesn’t have to pay out anymore, you get the same amount of money as you did before and you’ve increased the job market by 200 times. It’s a win-win-win situation.

The problem is framing UBI as a welfare benefit, when really that’s not how it’s supposed to be understood.

What do you bet that a fat Russian oligarch is more than welcome?

Well that’s not surprising given the fact that the vehicle is completely unusable outside of North America.

The other day my windows 11 computer booted and was unable to find the sound driver. I hadn’t done anything to it, it just randomly decided it couldn’t find the driver for some reason, after restart it was fine, but what the hell.
